Hurricane ?s...Jim?

Someone...Jim...answer a few questions. As a Cold War survivalist type from
the Way Back time, I can't figure these out.

1) I can understand people who were born there and can't afford to leave,
but why do so many other Floridians, who chose to live there, complain about
the hurricanes? Didn't they know about the hurricanes? Why doesn't Florida
put up road signs on the highways: "Welcome to Florida. We have hurricanes.
You are now warned."

2) Every year, around this time, the news has stories about the rush of
Floridians scrambling about buying plywood and nails and batteries and water
and whatever. Didn't they know that the hurricanes come every year, around
the same time? How come they don't keep these supplies around? Or buy them
in December, when they'd be cheaper?

3) The news always covers the stories about people who say, "It's my home
and I'm gonna' stay right here." Are their homes worth more than their
lives? Do they think hurricanes are like really nice Republicans and will
spare occupied buildings? "HEY! Hundred fifty mile per hour winds!! There's
people in here!!!" Floridians sound like New Yawkuhs in this regard.

Well, Jimbo is from Buffalo. He decided if he was going to be deluged
by water every year, it should be in liquid form.

They are idiots.

Thank you for your time to answer my questions.
